2nd ANNUAL BUD HILL MASTERS

I've played one Senior Grandmaster Division tournament, Shreveport Ice Bowl 2012. I thought Grandmasters were laid back! It was one of the most fun tournaments I've played. I haven't been to Bud since Spencer passed away. I've missed all of you. Hope to make it this year. Love ya Danny, Barbara, and Robert.

I missed this one last year because it was the same weekend as Bonnaroo. This year, it's the week before Bonnaroo and the front end of my vacation, so I might have to make the trip. I've missed playing the Hill the past few year and will likely miss the Dogwood this year again because we're hitting the Beale St. Music Fest all three days.
Like the entry and the included lunch! So is this event only at the Hill? If so, that's fine with me.

Bill I sure hope you can make it, Seniors are a good laid back group we will probably play 1 round original 2 rounds Ridge. Russ same to you hope you make it just remember Masters players pre- register.

Ok...here is some easy money. Bill has sent entry in for Senior Grandmaster Div. There's no reason there shouldn't be at least 15 Senior GMs. Except for maybe bad knees or a bad back that's it. You're excused if your rotatorcup is blown out, but that's all. Everyone else should be there unless your arthritis is so bad you've given up trying to hold a coffee cup. If you can do 12oz curls you can toss a 130gram blizzard. Come on let's have some fun! Its Bud Hill!!!!!

Bill we had 73 players last year $5271 in pay outs 7 senior grandmasters, already 5 SGM have committed. I hope all champions return this year.
If the SN cities or club send in sponsorship money we will have a huge payout.
Danny

I want to remind everyone that the Memphis Snake Doctors Blues Band will be playing on the club house porch from 8:00 pm until 11:00 pm. Even if you are staying in one of the park cabins or a hotel plan on attending the players party and we will treat you to a rockin mixture of blues standards and original music. Band members are Tom Stafford (Guitar), Steve Bishop (Bass), Greg Taylor (Drums) and yours truly blowing the harp.

Tim, we would love to let you and other players pay when you arrive, but it will mess things up if just one person does not show up. We must have the $55 entry fee on or before June 5 to be eligible to play. $5 of the entry fee includes lunch for both Sat. and Sun. and Danny will order the food on Thursday and pick it up on Friday. I will also post a minimum pay out before the 2013 Bud Hill Masters begins.

I just submitted my vacation time to spend it with a bunch of old poots in Memphis Tn?!?!?

HECK YEA!!!

Willy BT and Tully Bird will be making the trek on Thursday. Need to either get a cabin or borrow a tent from someone. Haven't planned it out yet, but I will be making my first trek to the Hill in Many a Years!

I'll send in entry fee when I read over the posts and figure out how to get it to y'all.

This should be a BLAST - I missed the 1st one - so this will be the best one!!!

I'll see about some sort of merchandise, or something to help raise some money. Planning on a raffle? Could get quite a few good things donated from some masters I'm sure, then they'll buy a bunch of tickets to win their stuff back!
